Venus is about 4.5 billion years old, but it looks a lot younger. A new discovery may explain the secret to its youthful appearance.
Astronomers have been trying to get a closer look at GJ 1214b, an exoplanet 40 light-years away from Earth, for decades. Now they have.
A new image of the bright, nearby star Fomalhaut reveals new details, including nested rings of dust that hint at the forces of unseen planets.

A frozen mix of water and table salt created in a lab on Earth could explain the red streaks crossing the surface of Jupiter’s moon Europa.
A newly-discovered Earth-sized exoplanet that could be capable of supporting life “is a key example that we have a lot more to learn.”
New research indicates that UV rays, not cosmic or X-rays, drive the chemistry involved in late-stage planet development.
